Nov 26, 2016 at 16:13 | comment | added | Hamed.Begloo | "In other words, finding a variational formulation is in general an art." By this sentence, were you just gonna say there is no guarantee to state Lagrangian or Hamiltonian in terms of elementary functions? Or you had another purpose? | |

Nov 25, 2016 at 17:46 | comment | added | Hamed.Begloo | Another question just came into my mind: Are these formalisms axiomatized correctly? I mean what are the axioms of Analytical mechanics? If it depends on the theory being formulated by the formalism, for example what are the axioms in classical mechanics? | |
Nov 25, 2016 at 17:45 | comment | added | Hamed.Begloo | Thank you. Just two other things: 1. Can you give me the title of some source textbooks which study Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms in its most general forms? (My whole knowledge of analytical mechanics is based on chapter 10th of "Fowles-Cassiday"!) 2. And also can you give me the title of some source textbooks which talks about the concept of "Time evolution" in classical mechanics(from beginner to advanced)? | |
